Hand Made Llama Themed Wool Tapestry from Peru, "Herd of Llamas"

Dramatic cumulus clouds roll across the ruins of Sacsayhuaman, a site of unforgettable importance for the Inca culture of Peru. Their shaggy forms presented on green pasture, a caravan, or tropilla, of llamas heads towards an undefined destination. Handcrafted by Francisco Huaynate, the tapestry exalts the beauty of the woven arts. Says the artisan, "Our textile art has always stood out because of the purity and joy of its colors. We maintain the tradition of the weaver from San Pedro, validating history and glorifying our textile art."
